While it'd be neat to see some very, very small changes to mix-up the meta and make some units more viable, I'd rather ere on the safe side and just go for graphical and UI/client upgrades -- don't fix what ain't actually broke. Except maybe collision detection on ramps. Fuck that shit.

lmao
Let's be real here, everybody's coming into this thread with preconceived notions on what Blizzard should and should not do regarding BWHD, with the lack of empathy and not being able to see things from both sides nobody's going to be convinced and change their minds, there's no civil discourse and only bad vibes being exchanged (probably rightfully so now that we're in 2016 looking back). It's like Christians trying to have a calm and civilized discussion with Jews on the subject of Jesus, there's just no fucking way.
As much as I would like Blizzard to implement some of the changes I have in mind (fix bugs like exploding siege tank, fix valk, at least remove/halve nuke's 8 supply cost for fuck's sake), their best/safest course of action right now would be to keep the status quo while updating the graphics and compatibilities with new machines. I would love to be able to play the BW I knew years ago today with updated graphics and widescreen, it's the dream. Whether Blizzard wants to keep the car on manual or automatic among other things, they can figure it out later down the line.
It might even revitalize the BW scene and I'll be able to once again watch Flash vs Jaedong with Koreans screaming in the background. This is where Power Outage comes in.

Wow. It's as if nothing ever changed. I pretty sure I read this exact thread like almost a decade ago now.
I don't understand how this could work out well. If it is a pseudo expansion for SC2 (same engine, same "quality of life" improvements, and all the same basic features), then it's still just SC2, and there is no new reason for the people who still like BW to care. If it truly wants to emulate BW with all it's nuances and issues that made it the game it is, won't it be too daunting? Wasn't it a major issue that SC2 was largely considered unapproachable for many people without RTS experience?
Honestly, I don't expect much more than blizzard attempting to churn out a product for cheap since the assets are mostly made, and maybe host a Korean tourney or two. But this is not a "stand the test of time" kind of thing, and Blizzard it just pumping something out in the mean time, only to be swept under the rug once it is time to promote WC4.

I haven't really run BW for so long that I didin't consider this difficulties. Still, the "two verisons paradigm" solves this neatly ... Gecko: I find it interesting to read your posts, because you have interesting insights, but I fear you are simply not casual enough to understand What part of "Not for casual" you do not get? The target again is Korea and old folks. The target is never to get new people on BW. It is Blizzard way to redeem their doing back in 2012. Afreeca TV already said that Blizzard is moving to support both BW and SC2 a long side as the transition in Korea was horrible. Once again the remake is not for casuals. It is just an improved version with improved graphics for Korea and old folks. The goal is not to make profit. That is why the rumors say it will be F2P. That is why they run WCS world wide for SC2 and not for BW. Each will have its own audience. Also, why the heck would Blizzard want casuals to play BW competitively when there is SC2 with WCS for that specific goal?
Do you just assume all that, or do you have any Blizzard sources on these claims?

I just hope they do two things:
Fix the netcode so it actually plays smoothly online.
Fix the hotkeys so you can actually 1a2a3a without having to have a distinct gap between keyboard and mouse clicks.

I wonder why sc2 players bashing on bw are not getting temp banned while bw players ALWAYS get banned... i really miss gosugamers.net.
On topic: I doubt this HD version will be any good but i am still looking forward to it.

We're in on it man, the SC2 guys, Blizzard, working night and day to squeeze the last breath out of BW. Sucks you had to find out like this.

The people being temp banned are mostly being clowns. I don't think the SC2 people you're talking about are bashing it with the same tone the people being temp banned are getting banned for.
I don't think you're going to find the bw bashing equivalent of
"sc2 is disgrace to human race, go to sc2 forum"
"I guess sc2 players cant read...."

I have seen a lot of posts with similar character but i do not waste my time to prove anything here. Funny how aggressive you guys are. Nothing else to do?

I'm sure you have. It's a pity. I wish you had the time to waste to expose those evil doers and negligent mods .

Oh you think you are smart? Luring me into getting pissed and flame you? Are you positive that you have the mental ability?

Anyway the whole BW vs SC2 posts are stupid here unless they have its own mega thread. I say time to close this thread until more info OR (based on my biased perspective) limit the discussion to the BW fans as the remake is for them. SC2 players have their own game. We do not go spamming that Blizzard should do this and this so we can migrate. We simply hate SC2 and keep ourselves away from it. I think the same should happen.

It's not "us guys", I played and followed BW before and to this day I enjoy watching both SC2 as BW. I was just posting in this thread to voice my concern that Blizzard might not only update the graphics. And apparently that meant I'm an SC2 noob that wants to kill BW's magic. So yeah, funny how agressive "we" are.
